Due to the Covid-19 Pandemic, this summer has been and will be looking very different compared to years past. Most summer activities have been canceled or postponed, with the remainder only allowed to proceed under strict guidelines.

While this is a bummer for Madison’s children and teens, many businesses and organizations are doing their best to open up activities under these circumstances.

After the news that Point Mallard Water Park will not be opening for the 2020 summer season, many children and teens are left wondering where they will be able to cool down this summer and swim in Madison. Here is the shortlist of open swimming spots in Madison.
